A square poster is 14 inches on each side. How long is the diagonal to the nearest of an inch ?
1 answer:
Answer:
Ok, so we have a square with sides of 14 inches. :)
The diagonal splits the square into two by the corners, so it forms two right triangles!
We can use the Pythagorean theorem on the right triangle to get:
14^2 + 14^2 = x^2
BTW, x is the length of the diagonal :)
So, 196 + 196 = x^2 = 392
Sooo, x is just the square root of 392 :)
= 19.7989898732, which rounds to 20

Answer:
D, see description below.
There is a possible typo in the problem since these points have slope 25/23.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope of a line, calculate the distance between points with a ratio of vertical to horizontal distance. This is done using the formula:
Here the points are (-4,-14) and (19,11). Substitute and simplify.
I think there is a typo in your points (-4,-14) and (19,11) because the answer doesn't align to the answer choices. But based on them, I would answer D or 24/23 since it's the closest value.
